Knife Edge

Sixth in the series that inspired Amazon Prime's Young Sherlock: A terrified house. A sinister crime. Sherlock Holmes: Think you know him? Think again. The first teen series endorsed by the Sir Arthur Conan Doyle Estate Teen Sherlock battles a monstrous adversary on a mission to Ireland with his brilliant brother, Mycroft. Young Sherlock is thrown into a tangled web involving a spiritualist whose powers have attracted the attention of governments around the world. At the castle where the medium is demonstrating his "gift," Sherlock finds a household in turmoil. Servants and some of the guests are frightened but who—or what?—has terrified them so much that nobody will speak out? Young Sherlock must bring all his powers of deduction to bear in unraveling his greatest mystery yet. Praise for Death Cloud, first in the Sherlock Holmes: The Legend Begins Series "Lane's command of what will one day become Holmes's signature methods is remarkable." —The New York Times Book Review "Lane's writing style is action-packed and detail-oriented." —The Los Angeles Times "For a reader who has outgrown the Hardy Boys' adventures but still seeks mystery-solving plots, Andrew Lane's invention of a teenage Sherlock Holmes will seem timely . . . Lane also knows how to do villains quite well." —Chicago Tribune "What a blast. Weird murders, creepy villains, fiendish puzzles, non-stop action. What more could you want?" ―Charlie Higson, author of the internationally bestselling Young Bond series "Andrew Lane begins a new series exploring the pre-history of the famous fictional detective . . . purists will applaud the way he salts the story with clues to the sleuth's adult propensities." —The Wall Street Journal
